Shooter in Barberitos killing looks like suspect in Chevron slaying, police say

The shooter in Sunday night's killing of a Barberitos worker looks similar to the suspect in the Chevron clerk slaying earlier this month, police say.

Police released Monday photos taken from surveillance video of the two armed robberies.

The features of the suspects are similar, Wagner said.

The suspect in the Chevron slaying Jan. 13 is described as a black male, skinny, 6 foot tall, wearing dark clothing and partially covering his face, according to a Warner Robins police news release.
